London Vocal Project

Great St. Mary's Church

£8 / £5 (students & children)

 

Directed by Peter Churchill, The London Vocal Project is one of the UK’s leading contemporary vocal ensembles, specialising in jazz and groove music.

 

Formed in 2008 from graduates of London conservatoires, the 24-strong choir comprises, singers, instrumentalists, composers and music educators, leading workshops in composition & performance.

 

Come and be part of a jazz choir with members of the sensational London Vocal Project!

 

There will be a workshop with LVP earlier in the day (10:00am - 1:00pm) at St Mathew's Primary School and attendees will be invited to join LVP to perform the songs learned in the afternoon workshop for the evening concert at Great St. Mary's Church (4-6pm). The workshop ticket also admits the attendee to the evening concert.

 

You don’t need any previous singing experience or an ability to read music, just enthusiasm and a willingness to try something new.  Music is taught ‘by ear’, enabling the singers to focus on sound production and listening skills whilst creating a level platform for all attendees, regardless of their ability to read written notation.Through groove-based harmonies, you’ll learn what you need to sing with one of the UK’s best known performance jazz choirs, and take part in their performance at Great St Mary’s Church later in the day as part of the Cambridge Jazz Festival! Age 14 and up.
